Anyone one have input on which rear speaker pod you like better? The IAG and Mabbet look to large. SSV and the Metra seem a little smaller which would be nice. How is the quality of the pod and anything else you like/dont like about them?

I've got the SSV pods with the SSV speakers (not Kicker). Quality is good. No complaints. Install was easy (I have a soft top). Sound great after forscan mods. I'm very happy with them.

Hi A, just to throw this in there. Our pods and speakers come with a lifetime warranty, which most brands will not offer. If you dont want the SSV speakers you can add in the Kicker speakers that come with a 1 year warranty or add in your speaker of choice. You can DM me for a discount code on our site too. Thanks!

Have the Metras.

Full transparency: I've loaded them with speakers (Kickers 6.5" KS series), but haven't actually installed them yet. With the tools I have, I'll need to loosen the hard top bolts a bit to install the pods, which unfortunately I realized after I reinstalled my TrailRax roof rack for the ski season. So the pods are now a spring project.

But in terms of quality, they seem very similar to the OEM pods. Typical plastic housing, looks/feels very similar to OEM pods, no immediate concerns.

Dang! Wish I had know about that discount before I ordered mine. 🙂
